Let's keep linux-usb on the loop for musb related patches ;-)

There is no check if platform code passes in more endpoints (num_eps)

that allocate_instance() happily writes past the end of 'struct musb'
corrupting memory.

The fix below increases the max to 32 (used on omap3) and also adds a
BUG() if the platform code requests more than the max.

This memory corruption was triggering various forms of crashes/panics
with kmem_cache_alloc() in the backtrace.

Looks ok, I'll put to my series.

It's good to have this check here.

 			epnum < musb->config->num_eps;

16 is the right number.


If 16 is the right number, arch/arm/mach-omap2/usb-musb.c going to trigger this BUG every time since it sets num_eps = 32.

I don't know much about MUSB enbpoints, but if 16 is the correct max, then the platform code should be updated.
